I directed a feature film about a queer non-binary journey told through the lens of science fiction. These days I think it’s all the more important to tell these stories loudly. Here’s the trailer for E is for: youtu.be/86XS5tLR1Ck?...

As President Trump continues to roll back protections for LGBTQ+ people, immigrants, people of color, and nearly all marginalized communities, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. What can one person do? #lgbtqia #scifi #fdt

We Have Witnessed the Future
a Sci-fi Manifesto by Welles Davis #hopecore #scifi #resist #manifesto
WE HAVE WITNESSED THE FUTURE A SCI-FI MANIFESTO FOR 2025 THEY WANT US PERTIFIED, BUT THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT WE HAVE SEEN. WE HAVE SEEN HEALTHY WORLDS, RICH WITH FLORA AND FAUNA. WE HAVE SEEN THRIVING SOCIETIES BUILT ON EQUITABLE FOUNDATIONS. WE HAVE SEEN SYSTEMS OF GOVERNMENT NOT BOUND BY CAPITAL. WE HAVE SEEN THE THE FAIRNESS AND KINDNESS OF HUMANITY. THEY WANT US COMPLACENT, BUT THEY CANNOT CONTROL WHAT WE BELIEVE. WE BELIEVE IN THE POSSIBILITIES OF THE FUTURE. WE BELIEVE IN LEARNING FROM THE PAST. WE BELIEVE THAT NO ONE PERSON IS SUPERIOR TO OTHERS, BUT WE ALSO BELIEVE THAT ONE PERSON CAN CHANGE THE WORLD. THEY WANT US TO BE SORROWFUL, BUT WE CHOOSE DEFIANT JOY. THEY WANT US HIDDEN, BUT WE CHOOSE BOLD AUTHENTICITY. THEY WANT US DESPONDENT, BUT WE CHOOSE RADICAL HOPE. THEY WANT US SUNKEN, BUT WE WILL SOAR. WELLES DAVIS

Join the Fries for a very special private (FREE) podcast event. Across the country people, schools and organizations will be hosting readings with HRC’s Welcoming Schools program. We'll be reading some of the recommended books for this year's National Day of Reading, a Celebration of Trans Stories.

My analysis of Emilia Perez is on Patreon! From smug liberal self-congratulations to the industry's refusal to uplift actual trans stories - Emilia Perez is everything wrong with Hollywood's version of inclusivity. At any time, it's frustrating. Today it's rage-inducing. www.patreon.com/jessiegender

“Labels aren’t there to be used as a bludgeon. they exist so that you can feel the most you...”

I will keep telling these stories. We have always existed, and we always will.

I’ve gone through some panic-filled moments these past few days. But I know I have my community and no law can dictate whether I exist or not. Here’s a scene from my film, which is turning out to be more revolutionary than I knew. #queerfilm #filmsky youtu.be/pdwlFQlBjKs?...

The same people saying “there’s no way he can end birthright citizenship” are the same people who said the Supreme Court would never place a President above the law by giving him broad immunity. #WeAreInTheSunkenPlace

JD Vance Begins To Suspect There Another Group Chat
PALM BEACH, FL—Noticing everyone else’s phone simultaneously buzzing throughout a meeting, Vice President-elect JD Vance began to suspect there was another group chat among Trump’s senior staff that he wasn’t part of, sources confirmed Monday. “It can’t be a coincidence that they all keep looking down at their phones and chuckling at the same time,” […]

I feel at a loss. My town square of TikTok is now down, and by the time it’s back up they’ll have “gentrified” the shit out of it with squeaky clean facades, catering only to boat shoes bros. They’re doing that irl every day as well across the country. (1/3) #tiktokban

It's fun to be living in a moment when it seems like we are about to enter an era of terrifying authoritarianism OR an era of authoritarian overreach that immediately crumbles and gives way to something better, and these two things might happen simultaneously, and we won't know for sure for A BIT.

Rip #tiktok. Whatever you become to get around this will not be what you were. But sure, go ahead and take our circuses away. See how that works out. #resist

All I know is if TikTok goes away I'm suddenly going to have a lot more time on my hands. To do shit like this. Buckle up.

And if somehow it doesn't, I'm taking this moment right now to promise to do more. We gotta get to work.

#film still of the day. From E is for, a feature film about identity and community. I directed this “Sci-fi without the wiz bam pow” #movie. Super low budget, and we got so much done inside camera. This shot, however, needed the slightest bit of post-production help. #filmsky

Hey, Stargate fans. I don’t think anyone has started the #gatesky hashtag but I think it’s time! I’ll go first! If any of you #Stargate fans DONT know me, I used to do a lot of Carter cosplay on TikTok as General Sam Carter. (1/2)

Four vertically stacked stills of David Lynch giving an interview. 1. Lynch captioned: As soon as you finish a film, 2. Lynch captioned: People want you to talk about it. 3. Lynch squeezing his eyes shut, possibly wincing, possibly looking frustrated and/or amused. 4. Lynch, eyes open again, smiling slightly, captioned: And it’s, um, the film is the talking.
